Personification: In the poem the poet refers the tiger by the word “he” which is used for humans. So, the tiger has been personified as a human with emotions who can understand. Metonymy: Metonymy is the substitution of the name of an attribute for that of the thing meant. In the poem, the poet calls body of the tiger as its strength (Stanza 4). Metaphor: The poet compares the condition of tiger in the cage and in the forest. He tells how tiger feels in the cage and how it would have been feeling if it were free. Alliteration: It is the the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. e.g. “should be lurking in shadow”, “where plump deer pass”, “in a concrete cell”. Symbolism: it is the use of symbolic images and indirect suggestion to express mystical ideas. In the poet the poet describes eyes of the tiger and stars in the sky as brilliant. The eyes are bright either because of rage or because of its majestic look. On the other hand, the stars are brilliant because they twinkle in the sky.

Write the figure of speech of the poem dust of snow.

Posted by Sadhana Agashe 4 years, 5 months ago

CBSE > Class 10 > English Language and Literature

1 answers

Sia ? 4 years, 5 months ago

The poem ‘Dust of Snow’ by Robert Frost has multiple figures of speech, namely Metaphor, Alliteration, Synecdoche, and Assonance.

Metaphor is used when the poet compared the falling snow flakes from hemlock tree to dust.

Alliteration is used in the lines ‘Has given my heart’ and ‘And saved some part’, as same consonants are used repeatedly in those lines.

Synecdoche is used where the poet said his ‘heart’ undergone a change in mood, which actually represented his entire personality.

Assonance is used to show repetition of vowels in several lines of this poem, for the sake of rhyme.

Poverty is defined as the family's total income being lower than an income threshold, based on expenditures judged necessary for minimal acceptable amounts of food, housing, and other essentials (Feagin, 1975).

Another important reasons why the rich should help the poor is it helps eradicate poverty to an absolute end. This will help people become economically sound, socially responsible and medically fit. The perfect combination of all three will lead to a clean environment and help control overpopulation.

Tribal societies were completely different from which was observed existed in big cities. They did not follow rituals and rules as they divide into unequal classes. These societies were called tribes. There was a singular bond of kinship among the members of every tribe.
Their main source of livelihood was agriculture. However, hunter-gatherers or herders were also there. Some tribes were nomadic and kept on moving from one place to a different. Many large tribes lived in forest, hills, deserts, and places difficult to achieve.

Tribal societies follow kinship bonds.
Traits like formal organization were absent in tribal societies.
Tribal societies have a communitarian basis of landholding.
In tribal societies, there's no hierarchy among men and groups in tribal societies.
